Thundering Silence

by Nhat Hanh

Thundering Silence Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

When a monk declares that sensual pleasure does not preclude mindfulness, his community is shocked, and Buddha is called in to settle the dispute. Buddha explains the subtle difference between indulgence and attachment and appreciation of life's simple joys by using the illustration of the snake: "If we know the better way to catch a snake, it will not bite us".

Synopsis:

Thundering Silence presents the early teachings of the Buddha on how to see reality clearly without becoming caught by the notions and ideologies.
